The hosts rank the mainline Assassin's Creed games and discuss the franchise's evolution and themes.
Welcome to another episode of Retrotopia: Another Video Game Podcast. This is a show where we, Alan, Brian, and Sam, get together to discuss video games from years gone by. We like to look at video games from the perspective of lifelong gamers and how they hold up in the retro sphere. This week Brian is ranking the Assassin’s Creed franchise, a series that began on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC in 2007 and has since grown into one of gaming’s most iconic franchises. Blending historical settings, open-world exploration, stealth, parkour, and action-adventure gameplay, Assassin’s Creed follows the centuries-long conflict between the Assassins and Templars as players experience pivotal moments throughout human history. From the rooftops of the Holy Land and Renaissance Italy to the Caribbean, Ancient Egypt, Viking England, and feudal Japan, the series has continually reinvented itself while remaining rooted in its themes of freedom, power, and the hidden stories behind history’s greatest events.
